Comments
Comments: Pretty well packed to loop junction but it did snow an inch or two the first couple miles. Snowshoes were best option. Up north was very solid and the easiest I have had to get up there. No issues between peaks, some wind blown areas but easy to see where trail is. Coming down south was lots of fresh powder, very soft and not consolidated at all the way that north was. Glad to go clockwise with those conditions. Great hike
